Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of biological detection, and in particular relates to a primer-probe combination, a kit and a preparation method thereof for detecting pathogens of brain infection. Background Art
[0002] Brain infections may be caused by viruses, bacteria, fungi, or protozoa or parasites. Symptoms include fever, headache, and altered mental status, often with seizures or focal neurologic deficits. Infections can cause inflammation of the brain (encephalitis). Viruses are the most common cause of encephalitis. Infections can also cause inflammation of the layers of tissue covering the brain and spinal cord (meninges), called meningitis. Meningitis can be caused by bacteria, viruses, fungi, noninfectious disorders, or drugs. Encephalitis is caused by direct invasion of the brain by viruses that cause primary encephalitis. These infections may be epidemic (such as arboviruses, echoviruses, coxsackieviruses) and sporadic (such as encephalitis caused by cytomegalovirus, herpes simplex virus, varicella-zoster virus, or mumps virus). In newborns and young infants, the most common causes of bacterial meningitis are group B Streptococcus (especially S. agalactiae), Escherichia coli, and Listeria. In older infants, children, and young adults, the most common causes are Neisseria meningitidis (meningococci) and Streptococcus pneumoniae (pneumococci). In middle-aged and older people, the most common cause is S. pneumoniae. Neurocysticercosis is caused by the larvae of the pork tapeworm, and schistosomiasis is an infection caused by schistosomes.
[0003] Encephalitis caused by mosquito-borne arboviruses is usually more common in spring, summer and early autumn when the climate is warmer. Arboviruses that cause encephalitis include Chikungunya virus, St. Louis encephalitis virus, Japanese encephalitis virus, forest encephalitis virus, eastern equine encephalitis virus, western equine encephalitis virus, and West Nile virus. Children are more common in patients, and most cases are clustered. Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) is an acute infectious pathogen that causes chikungunya fever. It is a zoonotic disease that is mainly transmitted by infected Aedes mosquitoes. The genome is a single-stranded positive-strand RNA, belonging to the genus Alphavirus of the family Togaviridae. Clinical symptoms are acute fever, rash and chronic polyarthritis. St.Louts encephalitis virus (StLEV) is an acute mosquito-borne virus that causes St.Louis encephalitis. It is a small (40-60nm), enveloped, positive-sense, single-stranded RNA virus that replicates in the cytoplasm of infected cells. Clinical features include inflammation and damage to the meninges and brain parenchyma. Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV), also known as Japanese encephalitis virus, is the pathogen that causes epidemic Japanese encephalitis. It is an enveloped, single-stranded, positive-sense RNA virus. It is a zoonotic disease that causes central nervous system diseases in humans and reproductive disorders in pigs. The disease mainly affects children, with clinical manifestations of high fever, convulsions, impaired consciousness, pathological reflexes and meningeal irritation signs. Severe cases can lead to death or post-healing neurological sequelae. Tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV), also known as tick-borne encephalitis virus, can cause natural epidemic diseases in forest areas. Its genome is a single-stranded positive-strand RNA of about 11kb. The virus mainly invades the central nervous system. Clinical symptoms include fever, headache, impaired consciousness, meningeal irritation, etc., leaving paralytic sequelae, and in severe cases, death. Eastern equine encephalomyelitis virus (EEEV) is an acute zoonotic pathogen that causes equine encephalitis in the eastern United States. Its genome is a single-stranded positive-strand RNA. It can be transmitted not only through insect vectors, but also through aerosols. Clinical symptoms include high fever, severe headache, neck stiffness, vomiting, lethargy, coma, convulsions and other encephalitis symptoms. Western equine encephalitis virus (WEEV) is an acute zoonotic pathogen that causes equine encephalitis in the western United States. It is a single-stranded positive-strand RNA that is mainly transmitted by mosquitoes. Clinical symptoms include fever, headache, malaise, vomiting, and neck stiffness.West Nile virus (WNV) is a zoonotic pathogen that can cause West Nile encephalitis. It is an enveloped, single-stranded, positive-sense RNA virus. Infection with the virus can cause encephalitis symptoms such as fever, headache, rash, swollen lymph nodes, convulsions, and impaired consciousness.
[0004] Echovirus (ECHO) belongs to enterovirus, which is composed of a simple capsid and single-stranded positive-strand RNA. It is mainly transmitted through fecal-oral or oral-oral transmission, and can cause central nervous system complications such as acute fever, gastrointestinal and respiratory discomfort, encephalitis, myocarditis, and conjunctivitis. Coxsackievirus (CV) is a pathogen that causes serious diseases such as aseptic meningitis, viral myocarditis, dilated cardiomyopathy, hepatitis, and pancreatitis. It is a single-stranded positive-strand RNA virus. The pathogenic Coxsackievirus mainly includes Coxsackievirus A group 6, Coxsackievirus A group 10, and Coxsackievirus A group 16. The clinical symptoms are fever, cold, mild upper respiratory symptoms, diarrhea, and gastrointestinal diseases.
[0005] Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a double-stranded DNA virus with a typical herpes virus morphology. It is also called cell inclusion virus because the cells it infects swell and become round, the nucleus becomes larger, and huge eosinophilic inclusion bodies appear in the nucleus. The virus has strict species specificity for hosts and cultured cells. Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) can only infect humans. It can not only be transmitted congenitally from mother to child, but also be transmitted acquired through saliva, breast milk, urine, surgery, organ transplantation and other medical sources. After being infected with cytomegalovirus, people will develop complications such as encephalitis, gastroenteritis, retinitis, hepatitis, pneumonia, etc. Since CMV can infect most cells and organs, its morbidity and mortality are higher than other herpes viruses. Herpes simplex virus (HSV) is a pathogen that seriously endangers human health and causes skin diseases and sexually transmitted diseases. Humans are its only natural host and are generally susceptible. The genome is linear double-stranded DNA. Based on the difference in antigenicity, the virus is divided into two serotypes: herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) and herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2). HSV-1 is generally transmitted through the mouth, droplets and contaminated hands, mainly causing gingivitis, keratitis, conjunctivitis, herpes labialis, encephalitis and eczema. HSV-2 is transmitted through sexual contact and vertical transmission from mother to child, mainly causing skin and mucous membrane infection in the genital area and neonatal infection, causing genital herpes. Varicella-zoster virus (VZV) is a double-stranded DNA virus. Humans are the only natural host of the virus. It is mainly transmitted through droplets, aerosols or contact, and is lymphotropic and neurotropic. When cellular immune function is low, latent varicella-zoster virus is activated, causing meningitis, encephalitis, cerebral vasculitis, myelitis, cerebellitis and Hunter syndrome, etc. Clinical symptoms include fever, headache, nausea and vomiting, mental and behavioral abnormalities, epileptic seizures, ataxia, stiff neck, etc. In severe cases, it can cause delirium, coma, respiratory or circulatory failure. Mumps virus (MuV) is a serious infectious pathogen. Humans are its only natural host, and air droplets are the main transmission route of the virus. In addition to causing mumps, MuV can also invade multiple organs and the central nervous system, leading to many clinical symptoms and complications such as encephalitis, meningitis, orchitis, myocarditis, pancreatitis, nephritis, etc. It can also cause long-term sequelae such as paralysis, epileptic seizures, cranial nerve palsy, hydrocephalus, and deafness.
[0006] Streptococcus agalactiae (GBS) is a Gram-positive streptococcus, an important cause of postpartum sepsis and neonatal meningitis in pregnant women. It parasitizes in the reproductive tract of pregnant women and can cause infection in infants. It can also cause postpartum infection, bacteremia, endocarditis, skin and soft tissue infection, and osteomyelitis. The bacteria can cause sepsis and meningitis in animals and has a high mortality rate. Escherichia coli (E. coli) is a conditional pathogen that can cause gastrointestinal infections or urethral and other local tissue and organ infections in humans and various animals under certain conditions. It can also cause urethral infections, arthritis, meningitis, and septicemic infections. Listeria monocytogenes (L.monocytogenes) is a zoonotic pathogen that is widely present in nature. It is one of the main pathogens that threaten human health in refrigerated foods. It can cause listeriosis in humans and livestock, and the main symptoms after infection are sepsis, meningitis and monocytosis. Neisseria meningitidis (NME) is a Gram-negative bacterium that only infects humans. Infection with this bacterium can cause meningitis and meningococcemia. Streptococcus pneumoniae (SPN) usually resides in the nasopharynx of normal people. When the body's resistance is reduced, it can often invade the lung tissue and cause pneumonia. In addition, it can also cause sepsis, sinusitis, otitis media and purulent meningitis. Typical symptoms are sudden chills, high fever, chest pain, cough and rust-colored sputum. The pork tapeworm (Taenia solium) is a zoonotic parasitic worm and the main human parasitic tapeworm in China. The intermediate host is mainly pigs, and humans are the only definitive host. The pork tapeworm larvae enter the blood and spread to all parts of the body, forming cysts that cause brain cysticercosis. The cysts rupture and spill their contents into the cerebrospinal fluid, causing meningitis. Schistosoma is a type of trematode that parasitizes in blood vessels. Schistosoma infection causes schistosomiasis, a zoonotic parasitic disease. Some patients with schistosomiasis will form cell clusters caused by inflammation in the brain. Clinical symptoms include epileptic seizures, headaches, personality changes, and mental disorders.
[0007] Brain infection-related pathogens pose a huge threat to human public health and the sustainable development of animal husbandry, and there is an urgent need for rapid, immediate and accurate diagnostic solutions. At present, the detection methods for encephalitis-related pathogens mainly include virus isolation and culture, serological detection and fluorescent quantitative PCR. The traditional virus isolation method is the gold standard for the detection and identification of encephalitis-related pathogens, but this method is complicated, time-consuming and labor-intensive, and has poor sensitivity, which makes it difficult to meet the needs of rapid diagnosis and treatment of diseases. The serological detection method has low sensitivity, poor specificity, and cumbersome operation. It can only detect one pathogen at a time. When detecting multiple items, a large number of serum samples need to be collected, which is not conducive to the timely diagnosis and treatment of the disease. The conventional PCR method requires gel electrophoresis to determine the detection results, which is labor-intensive and the product is prone to aerosol contamination. Summary of the invention
[0008] In view of the above technical defects, the present invention provides a primer-probe composition, a kit and a preparation method thereof for detecting pathogens of brain infection. The probe melting curve technology is adopted to realize multi-channel detection of different pathogens, which is rapid, accurate, has high sensitivity and detection throughput, and good specificity. It avoids the shortcomings of conventional PCR methods, such as cumbersome operation and easy occurrence of false positives, and is helpful to prevent and control the prevalence of various encephalitis-related pathogens.
